Published in 2017 at "Tectonophysics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2017.12.014

Abstract: Abstract Present-day deformation and seismicity of continental lithosphere are characterized by a first-order dichotomy between Plate Boundary Zones (PBZ) and Stable Continental Regions (SCR). Whereas the former are associated with high strain and seismicity rates,… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Tectonics"

DOI: 10.1029/2023tc008207

Abstract: The break‐up and drift of continents is governed by the reactivation of structures in the lithosphere that occur in preference to formation of new structures during rifting. Numerical analyses indicate that mantle heterogeneities should be… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Moscow University Geology Bulletin"

DOI: 10.3103/s0145875220010032

Abstract: Abstract The issues of tectonic inheritance in supercontinental cyclicity are considered on the basis of the contemporary domestic and foreign studies, as well as those of the author. Examples of repeated manifestations of Wilson cycles… read more here.
